Press Your Luck has had multiple hosts throughout its history, with each revival featuring a new host. The original host, Peter Tomarken, was known for his composure during unexpected circumstances, such as the Michael Larson incident.

Monopoly is just a boring family board game for a rainy afternoon, right? Wrong. Actually, Monopoly is much bigger than you probably expect. The history of the game can be traced back around 100 years, with Lizzie Magie’s The Landlord’s Game being its inspiration. Nowadays Monopoly is nothing short of a juggernaut, with keen players even able to take part in tournaments like the U.S. National Championship and the Monopoly World Championships. Here is how Monopoly became one of the biggest game brands in the world, up there with Game of Life.

Monopoly – a brief history

The Landlord’s Game was self-published in 1906 and paved the way for Monopoly to be developed as a top board game of the era. It took until the 1930s until a game bearing the name Monopoly was released, with Parker Brothers having purchased its copyright, as well as the rights to Magie’s patent.

The Daytime Emmys showered "General Hospital" with five trophies, including best drama, while giving Regis Philbin a fond farewell as a departing talk-show host.

NBC's "Today" show won as best morning show and the syndicated "Jeopardy!" was named best game show at the annual ceremony Saturday.

"Live with Regis and Kelly" was saluted as best entertainment talk show (its first-ever nod in that category) and for best talk-show hosts. Philbin ended his long run as its co-host last November, with a replacement yet to be named to join Kelly Ripa as the syndicated series continues.

Heather Tom, who won as best lead actress for CBS' "The Bold and the Beautiful," made history as the first to win in that category after having previously won as both best younger actress and supporting actress.

General Hospital was the biggest winner at the 2012 Daytime Emmy Awards, which aired live from the Beverly Hilton tonight on the Hln channel. The venerable soap pulled in five trophies, including Best Drama and three acting categories. But the night’s most poignant awards went to Regis Philbin, the daytime TV icon who shot his final episode of Live with Regis and Kelly in November after nearly 30 years on the air. That show won for Best Entertainment Talk Show, while Philbin and co-host Kelly Ripa won side-by-side awards for Outstanding Talk Show Host. Check out all of the night’s big winners below.

The 39th Annual Daytime Emmy Awards were handed out on Saturday, June 23, broadcast live from the Los Angeles Beverly Hilton on Hln. Going into the night, "General Hospital" led the pack with 23 nominations. The casts and producers of canceled series "All My Children" and "One Life to Live" celebrated the shows' final bow at the Daytime Emmys, of which they've been a staple for decades.

Instead of holding the Lead Actor in a Drama award for the end of the ceremony, the show kicked off with a bang by honoring "General Hospital" star Anthony Geary with his record seventh award. Geary made a tongue-in-cheek reference to soaps' struggle to stay on the air in these trying times, joking that "Gh" was nearly canceled for "Celebrity Boob Jobs Gone Wrong." Later, "The Bold and the Beautiful" star Heather Tom became the first actress to ever win in all three actress categories -- Younger,...
